Grim at Blackfive has posted an excellent roundup (with transcripts) of roundtables conducted with officers in Iraq. Grim also offers up a nice summary. Very good stuff.

BLUF: Progress in Iraq is outstanding in the regions south of Baghdad, but is running much slower in the regions to the north. In the west, Anbar -- though behind the southern regions by some measures -- has enjoyed an extraordinary turnaround from being the center of the Sunni insurgency to a region under Iraqi control. Overall, even in the slow regions, post-Surge Iraq is on the right glidepath. However, we as a nation do need to take the time to finish the mission responsibly in order to ensure that the victory is a firm and lasting one.

Much more at Blackfive.
